Gatland will make at least one change from the side that lost to Fiji, with winger Mason Grady ruled out. There have also been concerns around scrum-half Tomos Williams, while the 6:2 bench split of last week appears certain to be ditched.

Wales coach Warren Gatland appealed for both patience and time for his young side to develop after they lost a 10th successive international, upset 24-19 by Fiji at the Principality Stadium on Sunday.

Warren Gatland admitted Wales sent on the wrong player from the bench during a sobering 24-19 defeat to Fiji, on another dark day for Welsh rugby. Fiji triumphed for the first time in Cardiff as Wales suffered a record-equalling 10th Test consecutive defeat.
